Northern Terminus


The northern terminus of M-99 is at I-496 (Exit 5) in Lansing.  Straight ahead is the beginning of the Capitol Loop, a special loop route off of I-496 through downtown Lansing, in the eastbound direction.

This is the 0.5 mile advance exit signage for M-99 on I-496 West.  In 1991, all of Logan Street in the City of Lansing was co-named Martin Luther King Boulevard.  A few years later, the roadway became exclusively Martin Luther King Boulevard.  Signage erected along I-496 in the mid 1990s showed both street names.  When MDOT noted the change in 1999, however, rather than replace these signs, they simply covered up the Logan Street references.
